- To set the ArcNet address. Binary representation. Beware though, a

- 1, it's not 1 to ON and the rest to OFF, but 1 to OFF and the rest to
- ON. Or was it 8 to OFF and the rest to ON? Either of these two...

- Get the A2060.device or better the ch2060.device from AmiNet if you
- want to use it with TCP/IP or the likes...

- Take care,
